Rider Profile

Best ForBest suited to riders with at least some prior motorcycling experience who are comfortable managing a mid-weight, air-cooled four-cylinder machine with 1980s-era chassis and brake feel.
PurposeDesigned as a sport tourer, it blends a punchy inline-four engine with a more upright, all-day riding position for covering distance without sacrificing all sporting character.
Rider FitAt 238 kg it has noticeable heft at low speed and standstill, so shorter or less physically confident riders may find slow maneuvers and parking lot U-turns a bit demanding.
CharacterA classic air-cooled Japanese four with a smooth, revvy delivery and a purposeful, understated sport-touring stance rather than aggressive superbike aesthetics.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for anyone seeking modern off-road capability, razor-sharp track performance, or the latest electronic rider aids, since this is a mid-80s air-cooled analog machine.
